After completing my first double exposure effect I decided that having both the face of the model along with the image behind, with the opaqueness to show both of them in conjunction with one another, looked too crowded and complex for the effect I wanted to project. I sought after a more simplistic aloof effect, to match the genre of music and create a calming aura to the general feel of the CD cover. Baring this in mind I decided to experiment with the silhouette idea and instead of having the opaque, transparency of the models face mingled with the image that was behind this, I decided to have the image within the silhouette of the models face, without having the opaque effects- therefore the image behind would be fully visible and no features of the actual face itself will be shown through the image. The process of this was completed in the same method as the first attempt, however the opacity of the image behind of the model image was increased to 100% enabling this to show through as opposed to the model image. I then completed this process several times using different images behind the model image, in order to gain different moods and test out different images. The eight below are the different ideas I tested.
As shown within my digipak planning, I took various images of the model, in different positions. This is the chosen image for my magazine advert. The reason for choosing this particular image is due to the fact that, it matches the simplicity of the digipak image, as well as using the same model, and silhouette idea (to reflect the album title). The fact that she is holding the flowers further promotes the naturalistic element that ties together the digipak and the magazine cover. This is the colour swatch that will be used as the only colour element within the magazine advert, used as the background for the top half of the advert. The fact that I have chosen to use this colour is due to the fact that it is subtle and not too overbearing, linked to the fact that this colour has been used consistently throughout the entirety of my digipak. To contrast this, the use of the colour black will also be featured, yet within the bottom half of the magazine advert. In turn t...
I figured that the magazine advert looked a little bare in the bottom right hand corner, therefore I needed something to add in here, to liven the magazine up. It was suggested to me by one of my peers that I add the Spotify logo and put, 'now available on' just before the logo. However instead of having it in black and white like the other social media logos, I thought it would add more of a pop of colour to the advert if the logo was the signature green, yet only subtly as the logo is smaller in scale compared to that of the rest of the information presented. I took the image below from google, of the Spotify logo to use within the magazine advert. Then later added the 'also available on' using the same 'Arial' font from photoshop that was used for the information about the tracks. Therefore meaning I ended up with the magazine advert you can see below.
10. A short film in its entirety, lasting approximately five minutes, which may be live action or animated or a combination of both, together with two of the following three options: a poster for the film a radio trailer for the film; a film magazine review page featuring the film This is the OCR specification, as to what is required of me within this coursework task, taken from the OCR 'Advanced portfolio in media'.There was a wide variety of options to choose from, including- a music video, a film trailer and the first two pages of a newspaper etc. As you can see from the above specifications I have chosen to create a short film as my year 13 coursework piece, the main contributing factor as to choosing to create a film is due to the fact that last year I created a film opening for my coursework, and this obtained high marks. Therefore, after creating a film opening last year this developed my skills with regards to photoshop and after effects. This year I ...
